Listen to my conversation on the Megiddo Mosaic and what it teaches us about early Christian women, with @sandraglahn.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/4AXW...

What Does It Mean That Woman is Man's “Helper” (Ezer)? Hint: She's not like Hamburger Helper.

Scripture Doesn’t Have a Low Opinion of Women. But Pete Hegseth Does. No one could have predicted what lay ahead that day: a teenage girl living under Roman occupation sang a revolution into existence.

I'm Sorry, and We Need You I was late to Douglas Wilson's interview, but when I did see it...

As a woman from whom a human never came out, I'm grateful for the voice of this pastor speaking out against the false teaching of Doug Wilson. We need more of this from our good brothers.

Church Attendance Gender Gap Shrinks, But It’s Not All Good News - Lifeway Research For decades, women have been more likely to attend church than men. Recently, the gap has been shrinking—but it’s not necessarily good news.

The recent shift in church attendance patterns in the United States is primarily due to a significant decline in attendance among women, rather than a substantial increase among men.
